Synopsis:
This presentation will introduce and describe the workflow and tools
used by the Customer Engineering team at Cumulus Networks to manage and
improve their internal infrastructure. The team is distributed from San
Francisco to Cary to Wales,  and uses a combination of issue tracking
(Jira), version control (Github), and configuration management tools
(Puppet) to manage a fleet of Virtual Machines that provide continuous
integration, package management, and other services for the team to use.
This presented assumes no prior knowledge of the tools that will be
discussed, and should be approachable to a general audience with a
technical background.
